My neighbor swears she saw her cat in two places at once last Tuesday

Okay, but "saw her cat in two places at once" is a huge leap. More likely she saw her actual cat, then immediately saw a different, similar looking cat (or even a small possum) and her brain just connected them as one event. Our minds are really good at making patterns out of nothing, especially with pets we see every day. It's way more probable than some glitch in reality.

I used to think that too, but paulperry's point about pattern-making brains actually changed my mind.

Yeah, paulperry is right about that... I had a neighbor swear she saw her dog in two places, but it was just two similar looking strays.
